I'm trying hard at the moment to get a job.It looks like I could be in with a chance at a shoe warehouse doing customer service,I love working with people.However I'm wondering what to do if I have a hypomanic episode while working.The shop is very busy nearly all the time and very cramped.Should I tell my boss?
